Gilot Inspired Drypoint Workshop for Adults

Suitable for beginners - Learn the simple technique of drypont etching in this relaxed one day workshop with printmaker Lisa Feyen of Ink Moth Studio.

You will create your own beautiful set of hand-crafted fine art prints taking inspiration from the beautiful Francoise Gilot print exhibition which will be on display at CAN. This workshop is perfect for print beginners or artists looking to broaden their practise and develop image ideas into multiples. Dry point is a great place to start!

A dry point needle for you to keep
Tracing print/newsprint
An A5 polycarbonate plate
Use of intaglio inks at the workshop
